title: Purification and partial sequence of the rabbit mammary gland prolactin receptor.
abstract: 1. The prolactin receptor from rabbit mammary gland was purified to near homogeneity using a novel hydrophobic interaction chromatographic procedure. 2. Part sequencing (101 residues) revealed 34% identity with the rabbit liver growth hormone receptor, providing support for the existence of a new class of transmembrane receptors regulating growth and lactation.
